Deck of cards workout

It’s WORKOUT WEDNESDAY! Are you read to move your body? Of course you are!

(disclaimer: this is a recycled post back from 2008 but it’s a great workout so I’m featuring it again today!) 🙂

Get a deck of cards and get ready to sweat! Decide how many cards you will be using. Here is a general guideline:

If you are a beginner exerciser start with 5 cards
If you are moderate exerciser start with 10 cards
If you are an advanced exerciser, start with 20 cards
and if you are hardcore-I need to feel my lungs burn-type of person, go for 30 or more cards

As always, if you feel the need to do stop and take a break, please do so. Everybody’s fitness level is different, the purpose here is to challenge YOU at your current level.

OMG this is by far the “cutest” idea of workout I’ve ever heard of! I have a couple of playing cards here at home (I love playing poker too hahaha!) now I could put it to use aside from gambling. Thanks for the TERRIFIC idea! I really love it.

I found you in Shape magazine! Congrats on that! I do not have any children but am always look for tips on how to DO IT ALL. I mean, can my house really be clean while I am in fabulous shape? I can’t seem to figure it out. Stop by for a visit sometime!
